Please join us for a 4-week book study reading through Dr. Temple Grandin’s The Loving Push. We will be discussing the book, what skills are needed to be a successful and happy adult, and how we think about moving our children towards a sense of independence. This is geared toward parents of children ages 12 through adulthood.

For adults of color (21+) exploring neurodiversity later in life—whether through ADHD, autism, dyslexia, or other learning differences (diagnosed or self-recognized). Join our 5-week multi-session group to connect, share, and grow in a space that honors both your neurodivergence and cultural identity. Together, we’ll navigate the unique challenges of late discovery in a world not always built for us. You’re not alone—let’s find understanding together.
